Pentax Optio E70 Pro Reviews

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

The Pentax Optio E70 is perfect for beginning photographers who don't want to bother to learn the nuances of exposure, framing, and lighting. The Pentax Optio E70 does most of the work for you with its preset modes and Auto Picture feature, but still offers experienced photographers features that they'll appreciate and use. Underwhelming sharpness and detail loss with portraits detract from the overall impressiveness of the E70, but amateur photographers who want to preserve memories from a vacation will find this model a worthy buy.

Steve's Digicams‘s review Edit

Pentax's new Optio E70 comes packed full of useful features. However, the features and ease-of-use of this model do not make up for the lack in the performance and poor image quality we found during our testing. Therefore, we feel that with a MSRP of US$139.95, there are many other entry-level models in this price range with similar features that offer much better quality and performance.

PC World‘s review Edit

This solid entry-level camera has easy controls and good picture modes, but sharpness and portrait abilities are weak spots.

DigitalCameraReview‘s review Edit

Bottom line, the Pentax Optio E70 is just too slow. Image quality is sufficient for the needs of a beginner, but no photographer at any skill level wants to wait for their camera to finish processing an image. Again and again.

CNET Reviews‘s review Edit

For a low-cost pocket camera, the Pentax Optio E70 is a good option for those with simple needs.
